We had a terrible drive back from Milwaukee, as Noah screamed at me almost the whole way home. I about lost it. Luckily Grant was home from work early that day. I dropped Noah off, left, and headed to a nearby spa and treated myself to the best massage of my life. Much needed.
Being a mom is a hard job. Maybe not for those of you with perfect, angel children, but I think most moms would agree. Sometimes I tell Grant I will go to work for him and he can stay home with Noah all day. But it's time like these, that being a mom is the most joyful and rewarding job I could ever ask for. One smile from my cute little guy makes it all worth it, and I wouldn't trade it for anything.

You're not the only one Bri! Bevan likes to throw himself on the floor, or do a head-banging routine when he has a tantrum, or to throw something. Because they started earlier with their tantrums, hopefuly it means it will be over sooner..... But you're right, one smile and it's all worth it!
The joys of having an almost 2 year old. YOu're definitely not the only one! Max has been SOOO difficult lately! I think the terrible two's start around 18 months. Watch out for the 2 year molars as well. Glad we are in the same boat :) They are cute little stinkers though.
He is quite a handful!!! Your patience is tried...and no, you are not alone. I think that is the ONLY comforting thing in a mother's life to know is that she is not alone in these CrAzY endeavors. It's a roller coaster isn't it??? But his smile is adorable. somehow they have a way to win your heart back those babies!
Oh, man. It's so true. My Megan will ask me from time to time if it's really worth it, and every time I say "yes". Absolutely! Isabel will make me CRAZY with something new (or not new) every day, then all she has to do is give me that look and I'm over it. They really are awesome kids.
He is pretty cute. He would be, with a hottie mom like you. PS, can you move back now? I miss you at the SM, and think we would have much fun working out then hitting our Happy Place aka Nordies.
you are a great mom! and like everyone else has said - you are not the only one! Our job is hard! but i am glad your husband gives you good payment by letting you get prizes for yourself!
